Favorite destinations on an rv trip?
 

You can't go wrong with national parks (or national forest campgrounds adjacent to national parks). Texas has Big Bend and Guadalupe Mts.Utah has five great national parks. Check this out: https://www.nationalparks.org/explore/parks?state=1635

Thanks! I'll take a look.

Texas Hill Country would be a top option with destinations like Fredericksburg, Kerrville, Enchanted Rock, and Pedernales Falls State Park.

It depends on how long you want to go for. I think the #1 spot for Texans is often Colorado, but I might recommend against it if you are renting an RV for the first time. The mountain passes are dangerous and descending in an RV is especially dangerous. Not hard, but maybe not something you want to deal with the first time you are renting.

I think Big Bend country is probably a good one for you I saw someone mentioned that. I'd love to go there myself.

Yeah, we're a little concerned with the RV. I've driven trucks of similar size for work in the past, but that's mainly been through the city. We were initially thinking about doing a longer out of state trip, but it kind of depends on stuff like that. Might be smarter to do a shorter one and hit up a few parks instead of a longer haul.

Here's a maybe dumb question, but if we're renting a class C with beds, is it cool to drive to a camping spot, or do we have to stay in an RV camp with hookups and stuff?

You can camp in any campsite with a Class C RV. They have batteries for "boondocking" which means you can camp in remote locations as they can power your appliances for a certain amount of time before having to be recharged. They also have water tanks which allow for remote camping.

Okay - that's what I thought, just wasn't sure whether the parks were into it. Thanks!

When you make a camping reservation in a state or national park, make sure you pay attention to the length limit for each site. Also, some parks have designated tent only sites.

Okay, will do!
